I've been seriously thinking about getting microchips. Don't think anyone
else in our rescue group is that interested, but maybe I'll bring the
subject up again. Those are all good points - I may do that. The vet is
maybe 15 miles away, and may not be aware of our cat rescue, so I do want
to make him aware of that too, and our policies and our contract with our
adopters (we always take our cats back if needed).

I don't know, I think I might talk to her about not being ready to take on
the emotional hazards that come with the responsibility of holding another
life in her hands. (I don't know if I'd put it that way!). She may just
go get another kitty somewhere else. It sounds like she's in such pain
that she can't bear to see anything/anyone suffer.
Unfortunately that comes with life. She doesn't seem to have what it
takes right now to suffer through the bad stuff to get to the good
stuff. I'd certainly call, or write that vet to let him know there was
someone out there that would have taken responsibility for Chrissy.
Maybe he'll think about it next time someone wants to have an animal pts
prematurely. Was Chrissy microchipped? You could suggest that he checks
for a microchip before euthanizing anyone else.

Absolutely - everything that you said - you expressed it so well. So
frustrating, and hard to evaluate the adopting woman's emotional
state. And I end up with such a duality of feelings. She mentioned
something about wanting to consider another kitty. I'm just going to
ignore her and not call her back, although I've thought about calling /
writing the vet.
